Awarding the album four stars at CCM Magazine, Andy Argyrakis writes, "Da’ T.R.U.T.H. rolls up his sleeves and digs right into the complexities of religion throughout It's Complicated, Vol. 1."[1] Kevin Hoskins, giving the album three and a half stars from Jesus Freak Hideout, states, " not all is great on It's Complicated. Somewhere around the middle of the album, the music turns into something unpleasant to the ears."[2]
